Dear Bubby,
My boyfriend doesnt know how to take care of himself. He's overweight, has bad haircut, untamed hairy nose, severe skin facial problem. He's a downward mess. I've tried telling him to go to beautician and stuff, but he just doesnt care about those kind of grooming thingies. I'm tired of telling him what to do and I hate looking at his catastrophe appearance. Should I just dump him?

Dear Miss Tidy,
Not only are you tidy but you must have the patience of an angel where this "boyfriend" is concerned. Why I can smell him from here. UGH. Give the ultimatan that he has just so much time to clean up -- and give him a time - whether it is a week or two. If he still does not clean up: drop him. How can you stand being kissed by such a mess. You're too good to hang around with a guy like that or you will wake up one morning and be just like him. You are too good for that. UGH . Treat him to a big cake of soap.
Good scrubbing.
